Week 2 - Screenshots from the film Flushed Away

In my previous blog post I mentioned I bought the DVD from the film 'Flushed Away' to take screenshots from which I could use to build up my scene. Of course when I was taking the screenshots I was focusing on the background buildings and taking note of what objects are part of the buildings. Figures 4 and 5 show different variation of buildings used in the film that I could incorporate into my scene possibly in the background. I did notice however that some of the buildings in the screenshots are not as detailed as the buildings in the concepts art. Figures 2 and 6 I made not of for having lots of little trinkets and items in them that I could use and display around the buildings possibly.

These movie stills are only a select few, I want to watch the film a couple more times to see if there was anything I missed to include. Other films That I'm using as reference are studio Ghibli's film Arrietty. Arrietty is based on the book 'The Borrowers' and the main characters live in a tiny house made from unwanted human objects and other items the characters have borrowed from the humans.

When looking at how I'm going to be texturing the objects in the scene I'm probably going to be using hand painted textures for all the objects, that or a mix between real photos taken by me and hand painted textures. When getting a closer look at the figures above the objects and textures are stylized but have real detail like the objects would have.
